The Neepawa Press/Neepawa Banner

On Sept. 22, Provost Signs installed Neepawa Press signage at the Neepawa Banner office. That same day, they also took down the old signage at the Neepawa Press building on Mountain Avenue. 

The sign will be reinstalled once new tenants move into the building.  Both newspapers will now operate out of the Neepawa Banner building, at 243 Hamilton St. in Neepawa.

As for the distribution of the papers, the Neepawa Press circulation will be 3300 weekly and in a localized area around the town and some surrounding communities, while the Neepawa Banner circulation remains at 8200 weekly and will focus on a much larger distribution region.

In Neepawa, new editions of the Press will be located in yellow newspaper bins, while the Banner can be found in the black newspaper bins across the community.
